What richcoding Inc does

richcoding Inc (株式会社リッチコーディング) is a privately held Japanese software development services firm founded in 2008 and headquartered in Kazo City, Saitama, Japan.

Its current portfolio spans 80+ delivered projects across diverse verticals including healthcare, logistics, real estate, government/municipal, fitness, smart home, and tourism, with reported 40+ technology areas covered.

Technically, richcoding operates a modern polyglot stack: React, Next.js, Vue.js, Nuxt.js, and TypeScript on the frontend; Node.js, Python, and PHP on the backend; Swift, SwiftUI, Kotlin, Java, Objective-C, React Native, and Flutter for mobile; and architecture patterns including DDD, Clean Architecture, Onion Architecture, Prism, MVVM, and TCA Redux. The company has introduced AI-powered internal development tools covering documentation organization, automated code review (linting), AI-generated test cases, code optimization and refactoring, and AI-generated onboarding guides — positioned to reduce delivery time and cost.

ricchoding generates revenue on a project-by-project professional services basis with custom quote-based pricing; no public pricing or contract terms are disclosed. Its go-to-market is sales-led, relying on direct inquiries via the company's website contact form, free initial consultations, and word-of-mouth. The company operates a distributed delivery model across Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, the United States (New York, Seattle, Santa Barbara, Hawaii), Canada, Korea, and the UK, with a reported 1-10 core employee base.
